Tea party chair Jack Nelson doesnt trust the Highlands County commissioners, the school board or President Obama, and he often wonders about Governor Scott.
Democratic chair Dave McCarthy doesnt trust the tea party, Mitch McConnell, Big Business or Grover Norquist, whom he says turned people against teachers.
And theres not much of a reason to trust political commercials, said Marcy Everest, a political science professor in South Florida State Colleges department of social and behavioral sciences.
Commercials are false statements repeated over and over, so they take on their own truth, Everest said. The American equivalent of The Big Lie, commercials influence votes, but they dont have any informing quality. You cant sell peanut butter that way, but you can sell politics. There is no requirement to be true.
Trust in others and societal institutions is at its lowest point in three decades, according to a survey of 140,000 Americans published in the Sept. 16 issue of Psychological Science.
Compared to Americans in the 1970s-2000s, Americans in the last few years are less likely to say they can trust each other, said lead researcher Jean Twenge of San Diego State University. With the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer, people trust each other less.
While 46 percent of adults said most people could be trusted in 1972-1974, only 33 percent agreed in 2010-2012; 32 percent of 12th graders agreed in 1976-78, versus 18 percent of 12th graders in 2010-12.
How much distrust is due to politicians like Rick Scott and Barak Obama, who run on platforms of not trusting Tallahassee or not trusting Republicans in Washington?
The politician tells you what he thinks you want to hear, Nelson said. If hes talking to a college crowd, he says one thing, but once he gets in office, thats all thrown away. He listens to the special interests. Gov. Scott was a fairly decent guy. But when we the people rose up against Common Core, he listened to Bill Gates and Jeb Bush. Then he lied and told us he was listening to us.
It wasnt a matter of trust, McCarthy said, when Mitch McConnell said he wanted to make Barack Obama a one-term president.
